The Best Way To Sell A Trashed 1955 Porsche 356 Is To Be A Smart Ass

It’s speedster #212 of 1700 and somehow it was allowed to wind up in this bad of shape. Take that back. Bad isn’t the best word to use here. Dreadful is more like it. However, not all is lost. This 1955 Porsche 356 Speedster is currently up for sale on eBay. The top bid, as of this writing, is $152,400. Obviously this thing is quite rare and needs an awful lot of work, to say the least. The seller is claiming that new body parts can be bought for less than $20,000 and likely still has its original engine. So there’s that.

But the best thing here is the ad itself. The seller listed the mileage as 123,456,789. Exterior color: Many. Interior color: several. Warranty: you’ve got to be kidding. Always good to have a sense of humor, which the buyer will definitely need once the realization sets in he/she just spend six figures on something that looks like this.
